Pets at homes
Pets at homes are businesses that offer boarding for pets when their owners are away. Pet’s at home can range from full-service care, including grooming to interaction only. Pet’s at homes normally provide the essentials of daily food and exercise as well as some nurturing. Pet owners should take the time to consider the important factors before choosing a pet at Home for their pet(s).
The first consideration is whether there is room enough in your home to board multiple animals together. Pets’ instincts will be to find a “pack” or family unit to live with while they are gone; if you have other pets at Homes already boarding then it may be best to use one that boards with yours. A second consideration is the breed of animals to be boarded. Pet’s at Homes will only board pets up to a certain weight; make sure your pet meets any requirements before signing on. Pet’s at Homes are equipped to handle common household animals (birds, fish, reptiles, small mammals like hamsters and rodents), cats, dogs, and sometimes horses. Pet owners should also inquire how pets at Homes care for their animals; many Pets at Homes do not allow interaction with the animals unless they are paid for an extra service or it is arranged ahead of time (eg. dog grooming). Pet owners should ask if there are any special allergies that may restrict visitors from entering the home themselves so they can decide whether this is the right choice for them.
The third consideration is location; what part of the city or town you live in. Pet’s at homes are able to visit your home, but if you don’t have a car then this wouldn’t be an option. Pet’s at homes can typically visit within a 20-mile radius of their house. Pet owners should look for pets at Homes that are close by them so they can ensure minimal interference with other duties and errands just in case something comes up when the Pets at Home is already over. Pet’s at homes can be found in any city, but Pet owners with rural addresses should do some research on Pets at Homes that are willing to go outside of their normal radius.
Pet’s at homes typically visit for about an hour or two depending on how your schedule looks like. Pet owners can schedule pets at Home visits per week, twice a week, 3 times every 2 weeks; the choice is up to Pet owners. Pet’s at Homes try to accommodate what pet owners need and provide services that fit into their personal schedules as close as possible.
The fourth consideration is pricing; pets at Homes set their own prices based on the size of the home they are servicing and the frequency of service needed.

Pet homes are often called pet sitters, cat sitters, dog sitters, etc. Pet services are typically broken down into three groups: pet sitting, pet walking/dog walking/cat walking, house sitting. Most people prefer to have their pets with them when they travel so most housesitters who will be housesitting for someone else while they are away are rare. Pet sitting is the largest sector of the industry in terms of the number of pets cared for on any given day. Pet sitting is a growing industry as more people are living longer and having to travel for work. Pet’s at homes often have small pets themselves. Pet’s at home can pick up your pet from their house if you want them to, or they can meet you out somewhere else, such Pet’s at Homes may also do interstate Pet visits.
Pet sitting can be the most costly of the three groups because it requires specialized equipment and supplies that the other two services do not need. Pet sitters who will be caring for multiple animals need a car large enough to transport their clients’ pets safely and comfortably. Pet sitters should consider purchasing a basic first-aid kit for use in case of emergencies while on assignment. Pet sitters typically provide all necessary equipment, but they may opt to purchase liability insurance if their clients are concerned about the possibility of harm. Pet sitters should also obtain a license or other credentials (such as Pet Sitter International certification) that provide them with expertise in pet care. Pet sitters should obtain at least three customer references and should ask to see evidence that potential customers’ pets have current vaccinations.
